Holiday - Shanghai by KAWS Explore Mondoir Collection Medium: Vinyl with a fluorescent moon component Dimensions: 24.1 x 12.7 cm Year: 2024 Price on request Status: available Why collect this work?A pale moon rises from a compact tangle of black limbs, shifting the sculpture’s scale between a handheld figure group and an imagined celestial encounter. The artist profile identifies KAWS as Brian Donnelly and associates his practice with cartoon-derived figures across sculpture and design. The rounded anatomy and crossed-out eye connect this work to that graphic vocabulary.The photograph shows a reclining figure in front, its head turned upward, while bent legs and raised hands cluster beneath the cratered sphere. Their overlap leaves the action unresolved: the moon may be held, supported or simply looming above.Catalogue metadata records vinyl with a fluorescent moon component. Vinyl supports the smooth, continuous silhouettes visible here; fluorescence could make the textured sphere register differently under suitable light, an effect the photograph cannot demonstrate.Measuring 24.1 by 12.7 centimetres, the work condenses bodily repose and cosmic scale into a small object. That compression makes scale itself the central reason to encounter it. About the ArtistKAWS KAWS is an artist featured in the Mondoir Collection.
